OLD SEASON LYRICS

1. And Sands She Turned For Time


She came in dreams of fear
Oh she seemed so real
In her hands, held a vision of my life
And sands she turned for time

She said to me look now, for when
For when the last grain falls
Memories of me, in time, will fade

Then the dream, it seems alive
And its promise revealed to me
Leads me to the vile fountain
To soak myself to death
"Oh serene its clawing embrace"

Black roses did bloom
Oh my thorns were sharp
And her blood on my shards
I do long

Every night she serenades me
With her hymns of doom
She comes to me once more
She smiles, and dream in peace once again


2. Mortals Of Mettle


Visions so clear, dwell my memory,
I've survived a fate prior to this,
Plagued by dreams of gallant bygone days
My present being is fruitless compared

Evoke the eve, when I had a reason to be
To fight for life and belief
Evoke an age when the legend of prowess hath sailed
And the weak and the purile hath failed

Beneath our ensign, clad with splendour,
Persue the legacy of our fathers of old
On perilous journeys of conquest

Carved in stone the verse of old
And as once proclaimed the oppressed will be free
With fire in our hearts and steel in our hands
Besiege the antagonists condemn them to ruin

Evoke the eve, when I had a reason to be
To fight for life and belief
Evoke an age when the legend of prowess hath sailed
And the weak and the purile hath failed

Beneath our ensign, clad with splendour,
Persue the legacy of our fathers of old
On perilous journeys of conquest

As I awake to the sombre ground
Sunlight beams from my fiery steel
Lead me to my destiny
My thirst for life will never be quenched
Again...


3. The Claw


Crawling through all dreams foretold
A hand clasped my heart
Ripping wounds that never heal
All life falls apart

The end of a time has come
The vultures circle round

Rip the flesh - tease
Lie asleep and dream of death
The claw clasped my heart
My thoughts climax
Enamoured of death
My final breath

Take me now I have no fear
Pray the end will soon be near
To die in a dream

The end of a time has come
The vultures circle round

Rip the flesh, bleed
Lie asleep and dream of death
The claw clasps my heart
My thoughts climax
Enamoured of death
My final breath


4. A Divine Plague


Below in the valley the night closes in
The evening sky falls on these remnants of men
Wrought from the earth in boreal climes
To hew ruination in these vengeful times

When darkness falls, rain down this terror of old
Unleash the wrath, destroy and cast from the fold
Revenge to mete, heaven-sent deeds of the cursed
On fallen foe we quench our thirst
Silently, do we redress the deeds of the horde
One on one, will death befall the dark overlord

When darkness falls, rain down this terror of old
Unleash the wrath, destroy and cast from the fold
Revenge to mete, heaven-sent deeds of the cursed
On fallen foe we quench our thirst

And so this pact of which we sing
Sees fit to act the rage within
The few have come to heed the call
To struggle on, to stand or fall

We travel fast on steeds so strong
Long shadows cast, to right the wrong
And so this pact of which we sing
Sees fit to act the rage within
The few have come to heed the call
To struggle on, to stand or fall
We travel fast on steeds so strong
Long shadows cast, to right the wrong

Below in the valley the night closes in
The evening sky falls on these remnants of men
Animus, the impetus, to avenge our kin
Slaughter is the currency to repay their sin

When darkness falls, rain down this terror of old
Unleash the wrath, destroy and cast from the fold
Revenge to mete, heaven-sent deeds of the cursed
On fallen foe we quench our thirst


5. The Sky Burns


The sky burns
As I sit upon this hill
My kingdom stretches far before me
The horizon darkens with menacing skies
I'm fearing torment for my people

As was foretold
This pestilence will bring tears
Tears of woe, tears funereal
Who am I to dominate fate
Draconian days are nigh

As was foretold
This pestilence will bring tears
Tears of woe, tears funereal
Who am I to dominate fate
Draconian days are nigh

The heavens explode with a thunderous roar
Like hail, the fires surge to the earth
With soil ablaze, homes fall to ruin
My domains vestige is but a lake of fire

As I gaze upon all that was mighty
Consumed by flames
My kinsmen laid to rest
With nothing left I bow my head
I await my own solitary demise

As was foretold
This pestilence will bring tears
Tears of woe, tears funereal
Who am I to dominate fate
Draconian days are now


6. A Dwindling Seed


A dwindling seed
From their vast enchanting land
They mapped their route through oceans grand
Far from the west their galleons sailed
Their bloodline swelling in their veins

Travelling, beyond the seas
Further afield
'Til they reached their destiny
Deceiving their dreams
They conquered the seas
Releasing their greed
To a dwindling seed

Mighty kingdoms of magnificent splendour
A realm so great could hardly render
A race so valliant proud and strong
Seemed set to reign forever on
But when the darkness sent its call
The blood of old began to fall

Cast themselves into the fire
To fan the flames of their funeral pyre

Forging will in thee
To rake you across the sea
This lands betrayed your soul
Time to escape its deaths roll

As the tale begins to end
It seems as if the life can mend
Back in their land from whence they
Came never again could they set sail

Many an age before them fell
Another realm of might so fair
And thus they sought another quest
But would it finish just like the rest?

Travelling, beyond the seas
Further afield
'Til they reached their destiny
Deceiving their dreams
They conquered the seas
Releasing their greed
To a dwindling seed
